Bright Lights & Busy Nights
Vintage photos of the bright lights of downtown New Orleans!  Two of the movies
playing were released in 1941, so that's probably the date for all of the photographs in

This must not have been too long after electric lights came to the downtown area?
Looks as if Mardi Gras was in full swing.  Time period, between 1900-1910.
